I've been trying to put another one of Mike's poems to music, but not getting anywhere.
Then jip threw this music at me, saying he hated it and asking if I could do anything with it. Pieces of Mike's poem went in and I sent it back to jip with…
Back at ya Lady Jane, we are inspired by your down home feel, girl. To Sir with Love and Down Home Girl from Rolling Stones Now. Keep strumming. Steel drums to boot? Cool.

And this is the last of the little threesome of In Your Hands, Little Thing, and this one, When I Try To Be Me.
It's in the key of 4th fret and was written just over a month later than the other two, on 19th March…
(Remastered 22/10/2021)
I was asked (told?) to upload something happy. Hmmm, I thought. This will end well...
So, a few days later, I was rehearsing a pleasant little thing I wrote several years ago that has a working title of "She Was…
Ukulele and vocals performed by Jazz, 12.
She's starting to write her own stuff (proud!) but just to get her in the studio for the first time, here is a cover of a song by Vance Joy.

I wasn't even sure the recording machine was still going to work after nearly five years... Certainly, bits of me don't work anymore... But, surprisingly, I got this done in 24 hours, start to finish... Strange old world…
Well, I'm almost on a roll now - this little love song was written, arranged, and recorded in just a week. I've been meaning to attempt something like this for years, just never got round to it.
I'd actually settled down to finally record a…
A new one...
I wrote it on 5th February, and managed to record it in less than a month (a head-cold and lack of hearing in one ear slowed the last lap somewhat).
But seeing as the last one took over 8 months, I think I'm already ahead for…
This is one of the many songs going round my head from when I was young. No idea whose version I heard and used to sing along to back then, but it was written by Larry Collins and Alex Harvey.
(EDIT: Done some research. It was Dottie West's…
Found this old track while backing up my hard drive. It is an alternate tracked played at a slower tempo. I added a quick drum track and ruff remix this morning.
Thought I'd have a go at a soul number. FDR did some lead but the song was left all alone on my comp until today when I landed on it's lyrics while driving home. Thought I'd have a plumb at auditioning for the 3rd Reg, lol.
This was done in the aftermath of an evening out with Lady Jane,The two Regs and Jip 1965 which left me in a state i may never recover from and come to think of it may never remember haha
Anyway thanks for a great evening in and out and......until…
Wrote this after hearing on the radio of a bloke who ran off to France with his underage girlfriend and guess what? he's doing time (asshole) Thanks to Lady Jane for backing vocals
I wrote this little ditty back in May, did an acoustic demo and then played it to one or two people. I always meant to do something a bit more, er, "expansive" with the thing... So I stuck it in the corner for a bit and forgot about it.
Been…
At last... I've managed to finish something.
This was written months ago. I was about to try recording it with one or two others when this year's decorating started. With various buggered fingers, back muscles, etc, etc, I wasn't actually able…

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub…
Comments on Lady Jane's stuff
Lady . . . You are bring a little class to the place! That's a fun song to listen to.
Some cool intro there your ladyship. Love the song and the music has a great "Big Band" feel. Happy birthday Mum!
Sounds more saucy than lazy, but yes, Lady, super cool.
Oh FAB! :) These are the vocals we wanted from the old version... Am I allowed to "un-fave" the old version?! ;)
Romantice:-)

Back at ya Lady Jane, we are inspired by your down home feel, girl. To Sir with Love and Down Home Girl from Rolling Stones Now. Keep strumming. Steel drums to boot? Cool.
